**This retreat is OPEN to anyone who has a sincere wish to receive their HYT empowerment at the nearest opportunity!**

About The Retreat – Meditating on the 5 Stages

We are delighted to present a special retreat based on Part One of The Oral Instructions of Mahamudra. This is the heart practice of Kadampa Buddhism, and the quick path to attaining the sublime, unobstructed consciousness of an enlightened being.

Teachings will include excerpts of Venerable Geshe Kelsang’s extra oral instructions to the book, as given to students during the NKT International Summer Festival in the summer of 2016.

Gaining the slightest experience of these blessed instructions will revolutionize your life, transforming the ordinary into a blissful path to full enlightenment.
